Lighting Your Way

Lighting Your Waycourtesy: www.netpoets.com

If I was one thing, I'd be a candleLighting the way so you can handleYour life easier without woesNot having to fight with your foesI'd help keep you from stumbling overThings blocking your path to an open door.If I light your path, life is easier,Even strong winds, my light will not deter.No matter what, I'm here for youTo cheer you up when you are blue.Do not fret when times get tough,If things look down or kind of rough.Just remember, I'm always here,In your heart, close and near.I will help you out in every way,Happiness and love in your heart will stay.Don't blow me out, that's one requestUnless it's me you do detest.I do not try to hurt anyoneThat isn't good or any fun.But one day you may leave me behindYou may no longer need my light to shine.If that day comes, go on your wayAnd I will hope to see you again one day.If one day, I don't appear,Do not worry, do not fearI may be gone, but in your heartThe light I gave you did not depart.It will be there forever and a dayTo always bring happiness and light your way.Farewell for now, I'm needed elsewhereIf your path grows dark, in your heart, I'm there.So I'm really not gone, just not seen,I would not leave, I'm not that mean.Only one simple request that I must say,Please, never forget those who lit your way.
